OVEN BURNER
The gas flow to the burner is regulated by
a thermostat which allow to maintain the
oven temperature constant.
The control of the temperature is assured by
a thermostatic probe positioned inside the
oven.
The probe must be always kept in its
housing, in a clean condition, as an
incorrect position or encrustment may
cause an alteration in the control of the
temperature.
Moreover, the thermostat is fitted with a
safety valve which automatically shuts off
the gas supply when the flame goes out.
THERMOSTAT
The numbers printed on the control panel
(fig. 2.2) indicate the increasing oven
temperature value.
To regulate the temperature, set the knob
to the chosen number.
The “ ” symbol close to the maximum
position indicates that the electric ignition
is incorporated into the knob (activated by
the knob itself).
